Tiny optical format sensor for smartphone cameras
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV64B, a 64 megapixel (MP) image sensor with a 0.7 micron pixel size, enabling 64 MP resolution in a 1/2” optical format for smartphone cameras. This optical format sensor allows high end and high mainstream smartphone designers to create the thinnest possible phones with high resolution 64 MP cameras.
Near-infrared CMOS image sensors for no ambient light
OmniVision Technologies has announced Nyxel 2, the second generation of its revolutionary near-infrared (NIR) technology for image sensors that operate in low to no ambient light conditions. Despite launching the first generation more than two years ago, competing mass-produced CMOS image sensors are still failing to achieve comparable NIR performance.
Two megapixel 12” wafer-based image sensor
OmniVision Technologies has announced the latest member of its two megapixel (MP) image sensor family, the OV02B. OmniVision is using 12’’ wafers to produce this sensor, instead of the eight inch wafers that are in tight supply but are typically used for 2MP sensors. This enables the company to better address the increasing demand for 2MP in the entry level and mainstream smartphone and tablet markets.
Image sensor with stacked die tech brings 4K performance
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV64C, its first 64 megapixel (MP) image sensor featuring a 0.8 micron pixel size to enable high resolution smartphone cameras in a 1/1.7" optical format. Built on OmniVision’s PureCel Plus stacked die technology, this sensor provides leading edge still image capture and exceptional 4K video performance with electronic image stabilisation (EIS) for high end smartphones.
Image sensor provides high dynamic range for smartphones
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV48C, a 48MP image sensor with a large 1.2 micron pixel size to enable high resolution and low light performance for smartphone cameras. The OV48C is an image sensor for high resolution mobile cameras with on-chip dual conversion gain HDR, which eliminates motion artifacts and produces an excellent signal-to-noise ratio (SNR).
High-efficiency video coding compression processor at CES
OmniVision Technologies has announced in advance of CES the OA805, a video processor that supports high-efficiency video coding (HEVC) compression with the lowest power consumption in the industry. The interest in HEVC (also known as H.265) for IoT-enabled home security devices is growing rapidly.
Megapixel automotive image sensors with LED flicker mitigation
OmniVision Technologies has announced the first two members of its new automotive image sensor platform, the 8MP, front-view OX08A and OX08B. The high-resolution OX08A utilises a HDR, while the pinout-compatible OX08B adds high quality LED flicker mitigation (LFM) performance, enabled by the sensor’s on-chip HALE (HDR and LFM engine) combination algorithm.
Lightguide-integrated sensor for improved optical performance
OmniVision Technologies has announced the OV7251-2B global shutter image sensor, which provides shutter efficiency of 99.96% for machine vision applications that need crisp captures of objects in motion to avoid inaccurate decisions. Additionally, these applications typically operate in difficult lighting conditions.
OmniVision receives Guinness World Record for small image sensor
OmniVision has announced fromMD&M Minneapolisthat its OV6948 is the winner of the Guinness World Record for 'The SmallestImage SensorCommercially Available' with its size of 0.575x0.575mm. Derived from this ultra small imager, the company also announced itsOVM6948 CameraCubeChip - a fully packaged, wafer-level camera module measuring 0.65x0.65mm, with a z-height of just 1.158mm.
Optical sensor potential in advanced driver-assisted systems
One of the key objectives of the automation space is the ability to sense the surrounding environment. The ability to view, among the various types of senses is paramount, including the capture and analysis of images and the subsequent calculation in the distances of objects, shape and motion recognition, and more.
